Montreal Cultural Calendar

Popular twice monthly bilingual open mic. Vol. 140 is on the theme "Tumultuous"—I feel like "Tumult" would be the more correct grammar, but who's to say? Whoever has the balls, plus Kat Charles and David Bateman.

Rollicking monthly open mic with an absurdist edge, this time featuring MTL-by-NYC-by-MTLer Imogene Mahalia and Ottawan Fellow Traveller IAN MARTIN, who will be accompanied by David Currie, with whom MARTIN's written a new above/ground chapbook. Whoever has the balls, plus Imogene Mahalia, IAN MARTIN, and David Currie.

Speaking of above/ground, the tentacles of Ottawa chapbook impresario rob mclennan continue to creep into Montreal as his press reissues a vintage Stephanie Bolster chap alongside a new one from Misha Solomon that responds to Bolster's original. Hosted by Sarah Burgoyne.

Launch of a mystery novel set in Westmount, where this launch happens to be. See what you can deduce from that. Also snacks.

Get half-cut at LSH—your $45 gets you a glass of prosecco, two glasses of wine, a $5 LSH giftcard and some time with a staffer, who will try to "set you up" with a book you'll like. Personally I like to imagine you get all three glasses at once and everyone is walking around the store with their hands full. SOLD OUT!
